Question
Part 3: Capital answer the questions about the story below
Read the following story and think about types of Capital that we discussed in this course.
It is the 1960s! Put your mind back to a time when computers were not a household item,
and girls wore bobby socks and cute dresses! The dresses have nothing to do with the
question, don't worry - the computers are the key part here to keep in mind.
As the heir to the maple syrup fortune of her family, Cheryl Blossom has always had access
to the best. As a teenager, she attended the elite Academy of Unseen Arts. While at first she
was a bit nervous about how to conduct herself at the school, she used the skills that her
mother had taught her about how to design the most flattering outfits to convince the other
students that she was going places. She soon became best friends with Sabrina Spellman,
Wednesday Addams, Buffy Summers, and Morganna (no last name). While at school, Cheryl
majored in computer programming, having access to computers at a time when home
computers were quite rare. As a result, Cheryl has a deep understanding of how computers
work that is not available to most people. Cheryl loved computers more than she loved maple
syrup, and was soon head and shoulders above her classmates in her understanding of
computer programming and how computers worked.
After graduating from the Academy, Cheryl attended Harvard Business School. Cheryl quickly
started networking there the same way she had at the Academy, meeting and befriending
several key congressmen's sons & daughters. She hoped to use these connections in the
future. At Harvard she learned how to effectively manage a business and the ways to woo
investors into supporting her goals and dreams. She soon realized that maple syrup was not
the future of the world, but computers were. As a result, she reached out to her friends from
the Academy to help invest in her first major computer company. She called this company
"R.I.V.E.R.D.AL.E." for some reason.
It is now 2023, Cheryl is now 67 years old and well respected as a genius billionaire, playgirl,
philanthropist. She always has the best outfit on for the occasion and has used her influence
to ensure that computers are available in every school in North America and has peppered
the sky with satellites to help improve internet access. She is consulted by kings and
presidents and owns her own emerald mine that she bought in 2002.
Cheryl describes herself as a "self-made woman." (Questions are on the next page)
Use the completely made-up story above to identify the four types of capital that
Cheryl has drawn on in her success. Define each type of capital and identify the portions
of the story that relate to that specific type of capital by quoting that portion in your answer.
There is at least one per type. Explain why that is an example of your type.
